I haven't heard of anyone running it in Longhorn, but I don't suppose it's not possible when you bare in mind that it has only been created for Windows versions upto XP. ;)

up to Windows 2003.

And yes, it does work (at least an older version) in Longhorn:

Longhorn is Alpha Software from Microsoft.  It has not been supplied to the official testers of Messenger Plus! 3, nor was it supplied to the testers of Messenger Plus! 2, therefore it may not work as it should.

I personally would be interested to perform some diags on it in longhorn.

LH is running well for me, my comp is kinda slow so ofcourse it runs abit slow but if u have a good comp i'm sure it wold b a blast, it has alot of nice graphical stuff, dunno how 2 explain it but yeah its nicely layed out
i sujest if ur gettin a new comp and want 2 try it out, dual boot whit w/e u have now, lets assume xp and LH. it all depends on what ur usin ur comp for to, if ur just surfin the web abd stuff and don't have much valuable data the go ahead. safest bet tho just had another OS adn u'll b fine.
